Abstract
The trifunctional alkylating chemical mutagen trenimon increases the frequency of sister chromatid exchanges in human leukocyte chromosomes in vitro, as revealed by a BUdR-Giemsa method. Treatment with lead acetate exhibited negative results in this respect. The use of sister chromatid exchanges as possible indicators for mutagenic activities is discussed. Das trifunktionelle alkylierende Chemomutage Trenimon erhöht die Häufigkeit von Schwesterchromatiden-Austauschen in menschlichen Leukocytenchromosomen in vitro. Dies wird anhand einer BUdR-Giemsa-Methode gezeigt. Die Behandlung mit Bleiacetat liefert in dieser Hinsicht negative Ergebnisse. Die Verwendung von Schwesterchromatiden-Austauschen als mögliche Indikatoren für mutagene Wirkungen wird diskutiert.Keywords
